Green living is not just limited to eating organic food and drinking fresh beverages. It’s also not just limited to building habits like reducing the use of electricity or reusing old pieces of wood. It’s not even just about recycling things made of plastic, as well as glass, around the house, which can still be used for other purposes.

Green living is also about finally turning your home into an eco-friendly abode!

That being said, here are some green design ideas for your home:

Have an entire wall full of indoor plants.

We all know that plants give off oxygen, the main component of the air we breathe in. But what most people don’t know about is that plants also give off vitamins – even minerals – the main components of the body we live in. This is because plants are truly meant to keep everyone alive and well; hence, the need for us to have an entire wall full of indoor plants. Be it hanged ones or potted ones, indoor plants will definitely make you healthy and fit – in the most effortless way possible.

Have an entire floor made of wool carpet.

If you think wool is just meant for clothing pieces like sweatshirts, think again! If you’re setting up at least two green design ideas for your home, you should consider having an entire floor made of wool carpet. Wool is not just best known for its flexibility (you can easily dye it, with any kind of style), but also for its durability (you can remarkably pass it, down to the next generation). So before putting rug on carpet in your home, you really should consider having an entire floor made of wool carpet.
